I'm beginning to think that my own paper's James Goldsborough may provide more fodder than Krugman ever has. In today's paper, Goldsborough tags President Bush as a new-isolationist for not blindly following the advice of elite opinion-makers on the other side of the pond. If the Bush administration had deliberately set out to drive America's […]
On Friday morning I felt a little relieved that The New York Times' Paul Krugman column didn't appear on Friday, so I wouldn't feel the need to critique it before I left for my weekend in San Luis Obispo. (The wedding was beautiful by the way.) So, when I returned home on Sunday afternoon I […]
I'm leaving for the weekend to attend a wedding -- not mine. But take a look at John Fund's piece on today's Wall Street Journal opinion page.

No posting today. Likely no posting tomorrow. I'll be out all day celebrating my 30th birthday. If you want to give me a present -- use the Amazon.com tip jar on the left.

I've believed for years that the National Organization for Women's time has come and gone. Fox News columnist Wendy McElroy provides evidence that NOW is just nuts.

But long before that ruling � though only a few weeks before bad news that could not be concealed caused Harken's […]
God's prophet? The San Diego Union-Tribune's James Goldsborough can't quite top the San Francisco Chronicle's Stephanie Salter, but he comes close. Back in December, Salter showed that she lacks some common sense by "channeling" Jesus Christ. Goldsborough merely comes across as some sort of John the Baptist, shouting in the wilderness. Goldsborough takes on some […]
